MetalWrap insulated composite backup panels showcase integrated components, including windows and louvers. The product’s single-component construction means a single source of responsibility, leading to less coordination, fewer scheduling and interface issues, and one-step installation by one contractor.
MetalWrap is the only insulated composite backup panel with an integrated window system. CENTRIA’s Formavue 600 Window further enhances air and water performance and reduces risks for both the architect and the building owner. The window also features large thermal breaks aligned with the panel insulation as well as additional insulation in the head of the window frame.
The MetalWrap integrated louver system, developed in conjunction with the CS GROUP, INC., is designed for large areas where louvers are an architectural feature. The system utilizes storm resistant MW-7315 front blades over horizontal MetalWrap Series MR-300 system in the inactive louver area. Both the attachment system and the panel face are painted black, providing a seamless transition between the active and inactive louvers.

A barrier wall and a drainage wall are two types of exterior wall systems used in building construction. The main difference between them is in how they manage water that enters the wall system. A barrier wall system is designed to stop all water at the exterior face of the wall. A drainage wall system, on the other hand, is designed to allow water to enter the wall system but then directs it back out again through a drainage system.
CENTRIA’s MetalWrap™ Series provides a 10-year weathertight warranty.
